I understand where you are coming from, but so much lately has been hoisted
upon us in the name of "just another tool for law enforcement." Because of
that I will not be at all surprised if Oregon passes this. It doesn't
matter what the people want, or what freedoms that they believe they
have. Remember, this is the same state that doesn't allow you to pump your
own gas, or go to a polling place to vote.
In liberty,
